LXXXIV

Beyond Our Grasp 

"Ships at a distance have every man’s wish on board. For some they come in with the tide. For others they sail forever on the horizon, never out of sight, never landing until the Watcher turns his eyes away in resignation, his dreams mocked to death by Time."
- Their Eyes Were Watching God, Zora Neale Hurston

For some, dreams are just beyond our grasp, but does that necessarily mean we're settling for less? Some view dreams beyond their grasp, and still chase them. Other, simply change their focus. Which one is better, you might ask. To chase or to refocus? I, myself, am quite unsure.
